Purple-Themed Interesting Day Makeup Tutorial w/ Video

26 Jan

So last semester I took a Technical and Professional Writing class, and our first project was a technical instruction set explaining how to do anything our little hearts desired. My first thought, naturally, was makeup. It gave me the perfect excuse to record a video tutorial for a makeup look, an idea I’d been toying with for a while. I have to say, I have a new appreciation for people who post edited videos on a regular basis; shiz is serious! I damn near went cross-eyed editing the footage and making sure the final product was to my liking.

The video was made to be used in conjunction with written instructions, but both of these were designed for people with zero experience doing makeup. I figure if you’re on this blog, you at least know what brushes to use with which product when you see them in the video and are familiar with the terminology. If you’d like me to post the written instructions and/or specific products used, do holler and I will.

Be kind, dear readers. It was my first time doing makeup with a camera recording me and even though there are a few things I would change, I would say it’s a pretty good run for my first time.
